Good to Know
Aman New York
The hotel's jazz club, in the building's restored 1920s vault, is open to outside guests and worth a visit even if you're not staying.
Directly on Fifth Avenue at 57th Street — steps from Central Park, but genuinely quiet once you're inside given the building's thick 1921 construction.
This is Aman's highest-priced US city hotel — book well ahead for any meaningful rate.
Villa Sant'Andrea, A Belmond Hotel
Mazzaro Bay, Taormina Mare; about one hour from Catania Airport (CTA).
Complimentary shuttle to Grand Hotel Timeo and Taormina town centre.
Lido Villeggiatura beach club is shared with Timeo guests: loungers are usually available, but peak preferences should be flagged.
Seasonal opening (often from late March patterns): confirm annually.
